Muscle Twitching
To whom it may concern
I am a 24 year old male. I had unprotected oral sex with an Asian Sex Worker in November 2009. I became very unwell as a consequence- enlarged lymph nodes, itchy red rash, extreme fatigue, muscle aches and twitching.
I had HIV tests done at 5, 7 and 12 weeks- all negative.
Its now been 4 months and I am still suffering from muscle twitching, especially in my legs. Apart from that my health is fine.
To be fair I worried a lot about having HIV. Ive heard a negative at 12 weeks is a good indication though.
What have I caught?
Much appreciated.

muscle twitching has nothing to do with any STDs
HIV is not a risk for your exposure- besides the fact that 12 weeks is conclusive
If you are concerned about other STDs it would be
HSV- 12-16 weeks with a type specific IgG test. 12 weeks if you get the Herpeselect test
Syphilis- 6 weeks
Gono- 5-7 day
chlamydia- to low of an exposure 5-7 days
trich- 5-7 days
